A better morning?

.

.

Well, afternoon.  I couldn't wake until 15:30.  Everything was a bit off after yesterday.  Two doctor appointments, wound cleaning, dealing with... other news.  Well, and into town twice, while everything sort of hurt.  Yesterday ate it out of me.  Fair enough.  And, at least I kept up with things.

Plus, it hurt all day through the rest of the day.  Some of it was fluid retention.  Which really makes the old wound hurt.  To be honest, it makes all the wounds... roadrash, old open wound, ankle, knee, wrist, elbow, and some other things, hurt.  Something about having extra fluid just... isn't a nice thing.

Why was water retention a problem yesterday?  Good question.  I did put compression back on when I returned.  And took medicine, as I am today.  Some days it just does.  Maybe being on my feet so much, and sitting in office chairs.  And... who knows.

But, this morning, as I wake, the water retention seems to have subsided.  Things do feel better.  Back into compression.  I took it off, overnight, as I also took bandages off.  I... just... needed relief from those things, and took some time off.  Still, pretty good.

Everything, save the elbow/wrist feel better.  And those two aren't too bad.

Back in bandages, and compression.  Medicine in and down.  Rested and generally feeling better.  Can't knock it.  Would like to eat, not sure I have anything to eat.  Not sure I really need anything.  A coffee would be good enough.

Oh, I am trying to do a wrap, over the knee and wrist bandages, to hold them better.  I think I did the wrist too tight, so redid that.  The knee?  Seems okay.  It is a bit sore, but would be without the wrap too, I think?  I am hoping the wrapping will help reduce the goose-egg bruise more quickly?  I'll... experiment.  Learning lots of things, regarding bandaging.  Is there a perfect way?  I doubt it... just... better and worse, more comfortable and less, if comfort isn't... always the best method.  Sometimes It just has to hurt?  Suspect, if not absolutely certain.

Well... on with... life.  Good afternoon, day, evening.
